Earth Retention Systems Handbook

This chapter consists of tables which are useful in the design and construction of soldier pile and lagging walls, tiedback walls, or soil nailed walls. Applications to secants walls, slurry walls, and cylinder walls are also appropriate.
Figure 18.1 is a table which indicates the dimensions, weights, and engineering properties of HP sections. HP sections are most frequently used in driven soldier piles or single beam/tieback through waler applications. See references in Chapters 3.5.1.1, 4.4.2.5, and 11.1-11.3.
Figure 18.2 is a table which indicates the dimensions, weights, and engineering properties of wide flange sections most often used in shoring applications. Wide flange sections are most frequently used in drilled and placed soldier piles, double beam/tieback through waler applications, rakers, and conventional walers. See references in Chapters 3.5.1.2, 3.5.1.4, 4.4.2.5, and 11.1-11.3.

Figure 18.3 is a table which indicates the dimensions, weights and engineering properties of channel sections often used in shoring applications. Channels are used in double channel soldier piles as well as double channel/tieback or deadman through waler applications. See references in Chapters 3.5.1.2, 4.4.2.5, and 11.1-11.4.
Figure 18.4 is a table which indicates the potential unit pullout capacity of various soils. In the absence of specific site information, these tables are useful to design tieback or soil nail lengths prior...
